Global Grooves & Jazzed-Up Bars: We Got the Jazz!

Welcome back, rhythm seekers and crate diggers—this is the Overlooked Tracks, Episode 91, and I’m your host, Kenny Chiba, and this time around we’re riding a global groove that swings smooth and rhymes sharp. We’re dipping the mic in brass and vinyl, flowing with the spirit of Jazz Rap and Hip Hop that knows no borders.

From smoky street corners in Prague to rooftop jam sessions in California, U.S.A. this episode is a sonic passport into the soul of jazz-infused hip hop—a genre where the kick drum swings and the saxophone testifies. We’re talking MPC board meets Miles Davis, boom bap with a blue note twist, and lyricism that sips espresso with Coltrane.

This is the spiritual follow-up to Episode 90, but now the basslines walk, the samples breathe, and the flow is as cool as Thelonious Monk  in mid-solo.
So sit back, lean in—We Got the Jazz. We Got the Jazz.

Let’s press play on something timeless.
